I am currently working from home in Tech Support. However, I've been doing Tech Support for years now and I wanted to move away from that.
The place I work at had some openings a couple of weeks ago, I applied for a programming job but I was declined due to lack of experience, makes sense
So, I applied last week at yet a different position within the same company for 2D Designer. It lined up with my education, and my experience with their products and experience 2D/3D modeling software such as Solidworks and ExpressPCB. I interviewed last week as well.
Yesterday they got back to me and I wasn't in consideration any longer because I applied for a programming job before, and they weren't certain where my future lies as I applied for 2 drastically different jobs.
If I didn't need this job right now, I honestly would've quit on the spot as I feel that's an extremely dumb reason to get passed over for
TLDR: I applied for a 2D designer job at the company I work at, but I was passed over because I applied for a programming job several weeks ago
